Planet Explorers

Well, we're on Steam!

We've been developing Planet Explorers for over 2 years now, and it's finally made it onto Steam Early Access. We want to thank all of you for your support in getting us here!

As with any Early Access title, this game isn't complete. It's still in alpha form. There are lots of bugs and incomplete content. We will be fixing these bugs and adding more features over the next year until completion hopefully by year end 2014. Our update schedule will have major updates spaced by about a month apart, while smaller updates and fixes will be much more often. One thing I can promise is that each major update will have lots of content.

For new players, I want to tell you that you can count on us in keeping you up to date on the development of the game as well as getting things done. We will make mistakes and probably release updates that some of you will dislike. But we will try to make a great game to the best of our ability. There's actually a demo you could try here: http://planetexplorers.pathea.net/download/

Now I'm going to get into more technical stuff. This game requires opencl from the gpu or cpu. Pretty much all DX10.1 cards support this feature, so normally, it's just a driver update away if you didn't have it already. We also included the cpu opencl option in the launcher options. So if you crash at the start of the game, go to launcher options and select "Cpu" in the opencl calculation options.

Anyway, that's all for now, have fun and please report any bugs on the board and we'll take it from there. And also be sure to visit our site here for the latest news on Planet Explorers: http://planetexplorers.pathea.net

Bought it for 22.99 euro over here. Set the confurations, made my avatar, watched cool movie, it loads up to 36%... "PE_client.exe not responding". re-installed it. "PE_client.exe not responding"... on every mode, multiplayer or not, when loading it crashes. How can i get this game to work? any advice? i wanna play!!

I am actually very happy with my purchase and Is very playable in its current state. I have paid more for far worse in the past Keep up the great work and keep these updates coming. On another note the game supports 1280 x 720 so NVIDEA 3D users are good to go without any need for helix fixes.

I do however think that the gamepad support needs a rethink. The combat could learn a abit from skyrim and fallout but over all this game is far superior to anything elsse in its class

8/10 in its current state but could get a 10 if it delivers on its promises
